We analyze sumsets A+B = {a+b : a in A, b in B} where A,B are sets of integers, A is infinite, and B has positive upper Banach density. For each k, we show that A+B contains at least the expected density of k-term arithmetic progressions…

Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a normal pair with a projective morphism $X \to Z$ and let $A$ be a relatively ample $\mathbb{R}$-divisor on $X$. We prove the termination of some minimal model program on $(X,\Delta+A)/Z$ and the abundance conjecture…

We prove that if the cardinality of a subset of the 2-dimensional vector space over a finite field with $q$ elements is $\ge \rho q^2$, with $\frac{1}{\sqrt{q}}<<\rho \leq 1$, then it contains an isometric copy of $\ge c\rho q^3$ triangles.

In this paper, we will prove subadditivity of Kodaira dimensions for a fibration with possibly singular geometric generic fiber, under certain nefness and relative semi-ampleness conditions. As an application, for a fibration $f: X \to Y$…

A powerful tool of investigation of Fano varieties is provided by exceptional collections in their derived categories. Proving the fullness of such a collection is generally a nontrvial problem, usually solved on a case-by-case basis, with…

A graph is Schur-positive if its chromatic symmetric function expands non-negatively in the Schur basis. We determine a full Schur-positivity classification for complete multipartite graphs by showing that a complete multipartite graph…

Let ${\rm rad}(n)$ denote the product of distinct prime factors of an integer $n\geq 1$. The celebrated $abc$ conjecture asks whether every solution to the equation $a+b=c$ in triples of coprime integers $(a,b,c)$ must satisfy ${\rm…

We connect the existence of a ternary classical universal quadratic form over a totally real number field $K$ with the property that all totally positive multiples of 2 are sums of squares (if $K$ does not contain $\sqrt 2$ or contains a…

A recent heuristic argument based on basic concepts in spectral analysis showed that the twin prime conjecture and a few other related primes counting problems are valid. A rigorous version of the spectral method, and a proof for the…

Let A \subseteq [1,..,N]^2 be a set of cardinality at least N^2/(log log N)^c, where c>0 is an absolute constant. We prove that A contains a triple {(k,m), (k+d,m), (k,m+d)}, where d>0. This theorem is a two-dimensional generalization of…

Two sets $A,B$ of positive integers are called \emph{exact additive complements}, if $A+B$ contains all sufficiently large integers and $A(x)B(x)/x\rightarrow1$. Let $A=\{a_1<a_2<\cdots\}$ be a set of positive integers. Denote $A(x)$ by the…

We prove that triangular configurations are plentiful in large subsets of cartesian squares of finite quasirandom groups from classes having the quasirandom ultraproduct property, for example the class of finite simple groups. This is…

In this short note we confirm the relation between the generalized $abc$-conjecture and the $p$-rationality of number fields. Namely, we prove that given K$/\mathbb{Q}$ a real quadratic extension or an imaginary $S_3$-extension, if the…

We define, for any group $G$, finite approximations ; with this tool, we give a new presentation of the profinite completion $\hat{\pi} : G \to \hat{G}$ of an abtract group $G$. We then prove the following theorem : if $k$ is a finite prime…

Using ultrafilter techniques we show that in any partition of $\mathbb{N}$ into 2 cells there is one cell containing infinitely many exponential triples, i.e. triples of the kind $a,b,a^b$ (with $a,b>1$). Also, we will show that any…

Let $f:(X,B)\to Z$ be a 3-fold extremal dlt flipping contraction defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>5$, such that the coefficients of $\{B\}$ are in the standard set $\{1-\frac 1n|n\in \mathbb N\}$, then the…

For earlier considered our sequence A166944 in [4] we prove three statements of its connection with twin primes. We also give a sufficient condition for the infinity of twin primes and pose several new conjectures; among them we propose a…

In the classical sense, the set B consists of all integers which can be written as a sum of two perfect squares. In other words, these are the values attained by norms of integral ideals over the Gaussian field Q(i). G.J. Rieger (1965) and…

Using Brakke's Evolver, we numerically verify conjectured optimal planar double bubbles for density $r^p$ and provide conjectures for triple and quadruple bubbles.

Let $k$ be an $F$-finite field containing an infinite perfect field of positive characteristic. Let $(X, \Delta)$ be a projective log canonical pair over $k$. In this note we show that, for a semi-ample divisor $D$ on $X$, there exists an…
